According to the House Ethics Committee, Greene has been penalized at least seven times this year for violating the order. Greene was not wearing a mask in the chamber 20 times in a letter dated Oct. 28 from the House Sergeant-at-Arms William Walker, the Hill reports.
"You have been observed not wearing a mask on July 29, August 2, September 20, 21, 23, 24, 27, 28, 29, 30, and October 1, 12, 19, 20, 21, 22, 25, 26, and 27, and have been asked by a member of my staff to wear a mask while in the Hall of the House of Representatives on each occasion unless recognized to speak by the chair," Walker wrote in the letter.

Greene's office said it's been told of violations on 19 different dates by the House Sergeant-at-Arms, which could lead to almost $50,000 in fines. Some of the dates in the letter from the Sergeant-at Arms, which The Hill first reported, don't follow the information made public by the Ethics Committee, and some of the dates mentioned appear to have passed without a fine.
